Just keeping up with inflation would put the minimum wage at about $9.25/hour. Most execs know that won't hurt their business at all since that puts it at about the point where there's still more money going to consumers through wage increases than lost from job cuts. The biggest impact from an increased minimum wage may be from taxpayers, since units of government like park departments and community colleges are usually big users of minimum wage student work.
